Publication number: 20190310253Abstract: A method for diagnosing complicated parapneumonic effusion is revealed. A sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is used to measure a level of a target protein in a pleural effusion. Then the level is compared with a preset baseline corresponding to the target protein so as to determine whether the pleural effusion is a complicated parapneumonic effusion (CPPE). The target protein can be further used in combination with conventional CPPE biomarkers to improve sensitivity and specificity in clinical diagnosis of CPPE.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2018Publication date: October 10, 2019Inventors: KUO-AN WU, CHIA-YU YANG, CHIH-CHING WU, HSI-HSIEN LIN
